3mm cut carbon fiber (100g)
Recycled carbon fibers* from rovings (100% Carbon) of different origins, allowing to load a resin.
-For highly loaded molding and filling compounds
-Fast, good wetting
-For epoxy, polyester and vinylester resins
Application:
For the manufacture of conductive coatings as well as highly charged molding and filling compounds. Cut carbon fiber strands are added as soon as the resin/hardener compound is ready for processing. Any amount can be added: the larger the amount, the higher the conductivity and resistance.
Technical characteristics:
-Specific weight: 1.7 g/cm3
-Diameter of the filaments: 7 µm
-Sizing level: 1.4 %
-Apparent density: 450 g/dm3
-Tensile strength: 3500 MPa
-Tensile modulus: 230 GPa
-Elongation at break: 1.5 %
*Thanks to recycling, carbon fiber, a high-quality but very energy-intensive raw material, can be reused, which in turn justifies the high production costs. This also applies to the production of CFRP components, the total energy balance of which can be improved by the use of recycled carbon fibers. Recycled carbon fibers conserve resources, reduce waste and thus relieve the environment.
